10 Page COMMITTEE ON ASSIGNMENT S RECOMMENDATION TO ALLOW LINDA PICHT TO BE ASSIGNED AS A MATH CURRICULUM COACH FOR THE 2011/12 SCHOOL YEAR: This item was brought back from the October 3, 2011 Board meeting. The direction to staff was to be consistent with Board Policy and bring back. Staff reviewed the Board Policies/Regulations and compared them with the Assessment Form used and made the appropriate changes to align those documents. This did not change the recommendation of the Committee. As a result of our credential audit from 2010/11, it was brought to our attention that our Curriculum Coaches are to be certified in the specific subject area they coach. We currently have two coaches who hold Multiple Subject Teaching Credentials but coach in the area of Mathematics.

11 Page COMMITTEE ON ASSIGNMENT S RECOMMENDATION TO ALLOW KATHLEEN BIRD TO BE ASSIGNED AS A MATH CURRICULUM COACH FOR THE 2011/12 SCHOOL YEAR: (Continued) 14.8 DISTRICT TECHNOLOGY PLAN UPDATE FOR : RECESS: RECONVENE: 14.9 FIRST READING OF REVISED ADMIN. REGULATION 5121 STUDENTS; GRADES/ EVALUATION OF STUDENT ACHIEVE- MENT: On MSC (Swanson, Childs) Vote: 5-0, The Committee on Assignment s recommendation to allow Kathleen Bird to be assigned as a Math Curriculum Coach for the 2011/12 school year, was approved as submitted. This item was tabled to the December 12, 2011 Board Meeting. The Board took a recess at 9:30 p.m. The Board reconvened the meeting at 9:43 p.m. The Board was asked to conduct a First Reading of Revised Administrative Regulation 5121 Students; Grades/Evaluation of Student Achievement. The revision is necessary in order to bring our policy and practices into alignment. If no changes are made, this Regulation will come to the Board at the next meeting for second reading and adoption. According to Jovy Yankaskas, Asst. Supt., Educational Services, this change deals with Honors courses and credits. It is updating information regarding grades for citizenship changing it to O, S, N and U. For the Honors, the UC s and CSU s do not weight honors classes. By us weighting, it kind of inflates the GPA so parents are confused when they go to submit for CSU s and UC s and because they don t weight it, their GPA is actually lower than what they had anticipated. That is why we re changing our policy to match up with CSU and UC requirements. We want to incorporate this as soon as possible because this information will be incorporated into the Student Handbooks starting in January.

12 Page 12 President Bentley referred to Page 225, last paragraph which reads Students not maintaining a 2.0 or C grade point average will be placed on probation for one quarter grading period and will remain eligible to participate in interscholastic athletics during the probationary period. He would simply argue whether this applied across the board because there are challenges there. When a grading period is 10 days long; how does that work? The policy specifically says interscholastic athletics. Do we want to expand to just specific athletics because interscholastic means you re playing another school as opposed to intramural. It s an issue that should be addressed at some particular point in time. That doesn t fit the 10 day grading period. He also indicated that we need to define somewhere in policy what constitutes eligibility to play. Following discussion, this item will be brought forward for second reading/adoption at the next Board meeting FIRST INTERIM REPORT: Superintendent McKinney asked that the presentation for the Interim Report move forward but postpone the action on this item to the December 12, 2011 meeting. David McLaughlin, Asst. Supt., Business Services and Laura Carevic, Director of Fiscal Services, presented a PowerPoint presentation on the First Interim Report covering the period from July 1 st to October 31st. MOTION TO EXTEND BOARD MEETING: FIRST INTERIM REPORT: (Continued) HESPEIRA HS STADIUM RESTROOMS: On MSC (Swanson, Childs) Vote: 3-2 (Ayes: Bentley, Childs, Swanson; Noes: Black, Riley) The motion to extend the Board Meeting to 11:00 p.m. was approved. No action was taken. This item was tabled to the December 12, 2011 meeting. At the November 7, 2011 Board meeting, direction was given to staff to survey work, get costs and bring back to the December meeting. The Board was asked to authorize the Facilities Department to move forward with the installation of two permanent restroom buildings for Hesperia High School Stadium.

13 Page HESPEIRA HS STADIUM RESTROOMS: (Continued) When the stadium was built at Hesperia HS, it was designed with the restrooms and concessions being located in the new performing arts building adjacent to the field. When funding became unavailable, the performing arts building was put on hold, therefore leaving the stadium without permanent facilities. This recommended solution would place permanent restroom facilities that will remain and be utilized after the construction of the performing arts center. There are still some variables that need to be defined such as the sewer connection that may be a cost increase or decrease. This will not be defined until a civil engineer can complete a survey. Estimated cost $500, Following discussion, a motion was made. On MSC (Childs, Swanson) Vote: 5-0, The Board authorized the Facilities Department to move forward with the installation of two permanent restroom buildings for Hesperia HS stadium at an estimated cost of $500, RESOLUTION AND RENEWAL OF CONSULTING AGREE- MENT BETWEEN CSBA S PRACTI-CAL, INC., AND THE HESPERIA UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT FOR MEDI-CAL SERVICES PROGRAM CLAIMS REPORTING: RENEWAL OF CONSULTING AGREE- MENT WITH CSBA S PRACTI-CAL INC., AND THE HESPERIA UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT FOR MEDI- CAL ADMINISTRATIVE ACTIVITIES (MAA) CLAIM REPORTING: Staff requested that this item be pulled to the next meeting.

14 Page COMPREHENSIVE SAFE SCHOOL PLANS: The Board was asked to approve the Comprehensive Safe School Plans submitted by each school site as required under Education Code and Board Policy Education Code requires that every school complete a Comprehensive Safe School Plan that is approved by their school site council and then adopted by the District s Governing Board. Once the Plans are adopted by the Governing Board, each school site is required to notify the public of the Comprehensive Safe School Plan and provide an opportunity for viewing at a public meeting. The Plan must be an assessment of the current status of school crime committed on campus and identify appropriate strategies and programs that will provide or maintain a high level of school safety and to promote a culture of safety for the students. The Plan is required to address the following components: Child abuse reporting procedures Disaster and emergency procedures (site specific) Suspension and expulsion recommendations Notification of Dangerous Students Discrimination and Harassment Policy Dress Code Safe Ingress and Egress Safe and Orderly Environment School Discipline Hate Crime Reporting May also include procedures for release of pesticide (Integrated Pest Management Plans) According to Kathy Everhart, Asst. Director, Risk Management- Benefits, this Plan did not have to be approved tonight. Other than the specific Comprehensive Safe School Plan that has some individualized areas for those schools, everything else is exactly the same. According to Mrs. Everhart, this Plan was put in place in 2001 since Columbine incident. The Plan has to be done every year through school site council. The Education Code requires that it be brought to the School Board for approval when a school first does the plan. It is not required to come back to the Board if it is revised. Vice President Swanson indicated that he would like this to come back to the Board in the future as there are some holes that need to be addressed in the future. This item was tabled to the December 12 meeting.
